Liverpool was unable to overcome a toothless Wigan.
The only difference of the match is Steven Gerrard.
I have watched the whole match closely and make the following
observations:
- Keng-well is playing below standard and playing to get into the
World Cup in June.
The above comments were made by one of the ESPN guest commentators.
After playing special attention to him last night, I have to agree
that Keng-well is in the Liverpool team to play as S-League
standard. He did not peform the effective role of left wingers and
not commited in making any tackles for fear of injury. He must be
TAKEN OFF.
- RIISE have to stay as Right-Back.
The solid defence of Liverpool was rocked with the substitution of
Warnock and Taore. Ah Ben have to stick with the only defence
line-up.
- Nando is playing Like Garcia, but not scoring like Garcia
The striker was seen losing possession at the slightest tackle.
Although he is able to provide intelligent passes and set-up, he is
often found in the 2/3 of the field getting the ball and out of the
forward portion of the field. The only solution is play him more
often to get his match sharpness. If he stays scoreless for the
next season, clear him.
- Liverpool is Lazy Midfield.
The midfield of Liverpool rarely move forward to the forward
portion of the field to provide support and fight for lost
possession. They like to play long ball to the strikers and see
them suffered against 4 defenders. That is why when Steven is not
around, NO ONE in the midfield will move forward to regain
possession.
- Dudek is BACK.
Although out for half a season, Dudek was impressive last night in
stopping a freak own goal by Hyypia. I predict he will be the hero
for the Arsenal game.
